Wow what a quick week. Week one of my "lets get organized" kick seemed to have gone by pretty quick and easy. I have a partner so to speak working along with me, she and I spent quite an afternoon searching for her a copy of the book so that she could have the check lists and journal pages that are in it for herself. I feel like I will see this road to the end knowing that someone is so willing to keep me on track and accountable. And it is a nice weekly reward to sit down have lunch and talk about our success and our failures. Trust me I have failures especially when it comes to being organized.
I didn't really have to make too many changes this week as I already make sure I get plenty of sleep(with having a weird schedule and working some weekends every day seems like a work day at our house and we go to bed early every night). I am constantly making little to do lists for me and every one else in the house. Most the time its chore lists for the girls. I don't watch a ton of TV because I am more addicted to reading & the Internet than the television. The one thing I need to work on most from week one is the elimination of clutter. We are working on the laundry room first. As that room seems to be a dumping ground of sorts, if something doesn't have a home it gets stashed in the laundry room until someone needs it. I have a lot of work to do in this room. It lacks proper storage solutions so I am working on getting and keeping laundry caught up so that I can toss out the things no one needs or uses. This is where week one ended. Not a bad start to my new adventure.
This week we are beginning week 2 organize your priorities. I feel like this is different for everyone so there is one thing you will have to ask yourself "what's important to me, what do I want to accomplish?" And then make a list of top ten things to do to help you work towards what it is that's important to you. I want an organized less cluttered home I also want to remodel a few rooms in our house and can't do it until things are less stuffed with stuff. I want the less cluttered revamped home so that I can spend more time entertaining my friends and family in a more comfortable, inviting home. So I will continue working on the laundry room and which ever room comes to mind after that work on setting up more of my priorities and see what happens.
Hope you're joining me on this journey and if you are please feel free to share your progress, set backs and/goals here in the comments section. Or email me directly at tlc33195@gmail.com
